http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Backgrounds/1.htm
is the Final Product of what i was able to do with my script + .htaccess
Its a combanation of

htacess
[text]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*).htm$ $1/index.php?page=$2 [L]
[/text]

php script

Code: Select all

<?php
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/_config.php');
if(!isset($_GET['page'])):
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: 1.htm");
exit();
endif;
$page = preg_replace("@[^0-9]@", "", $_GET['page']);
}
How do i properly turn what is normally http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-backgrounds/?=page1
to http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Backgrounds1.htm


This is the whole code section of the script if it helps.

Code: Select all

<?php
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/_config.php');

if(!isset($_GET['page'])):
header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: 1.htm");
exit();
endif;
$page = preg_replace("@[^0-9]@", "", $_GET['page']);

$_dir = end(explode('/', $start));

$_cache = 'categories';

if($_caching_on == 1){
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/_encoded/cache_head.php');
}

else{
require_once( $_path . '/_inc/_encoded/'.$_cache.'.php');

if( $page > $pages ):

header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");
header("Location: 1.htm");
exit();

endif;
}

$_rep = array('-'=>' ','_'=>' ','1'=>'','2'=>'','3'=>'','4'=>'','5'=>'','6'=>'','7'=>'','8'=>'','9'=>'');


$tags = ucwords(trim(strtr(current($SliceArr), $_rep))).', ';
 
$total = (count($SliceArr)-1);

for($i=0; $i<$total; $i++){

if($i != ($total - 1)){
$tags .= ucwords(trim(strtr(next($SliceArr), $_rep))).', ';
}else{
$tags .= ucwords(trim(strtr(next($SliceArr), $_rep)));
	}
}

include( $_path . '/_theme/header.php');
echo '<h1>'.$_dir.' Category </h1>'."\n";
echo '<div id="play">'."\n";
if(file_exists('before.php')) include('before.php');

foreach($SliceArr  as $OBJ):

$name = ucwords(trim(strtr($OBJ, $_rep)));

if(file_exists($_path.'/'.$_dir.'/'.$OBJ.'/thumb.jpg')){
$THUMB = 'thumb.jpg';
}

elseif(file_exists($_path.'/'.$_dir.'/'.$OBJ.'/thumb.png')){
$THUMB = 'thumb.png';
}

elseif(file_exists($_path.'/'.$_dir.'/'.$OBJ.'/thumb.gif')){
$THUMB = 'thumb.gif';
}

echo 

'<div id="cata" class="'.$_dir.'_category">'."\n".
'<p class="'.$_dir.'_category_title"><h2>'.$name.'</h2></p>'."\n".
'<a href="'.$_url.'/'.$_dir.'/'.$OBJ.'/"><img src="'.$_url.'/'.$_dir.'/'.$OBJ.'/'.$THUMB.'" border="0" class="nude"/></a>'."\n".
'</div>'."\n";

endforeach;

$num = 1;

echo
'</div>'."\n".
'<div id="pnav">'."\n".
'<span id="pages">Pages:</span>&nbsp;'."\n";


while( $num <=  $pages ):

if($page != $num)
echo '<a href="'.$num.'.htm" class="pnum">'.$num.'</a>'."\n";

elseif($page == $num)
echo $num."\n";

$num++;

endwhile;
echo '</div>'."\n";

if(file_exists('after.php')) include('after.php');

include( $_path . '/_theme/footer.php');

if($_caching_on == 1){
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/_encoded/cache_foot.php');
}

?>

And my current htacess
[text]Options -Indexes
Options +FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*).htm$ $1/index.php?page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*).htm$ $1/2$/index.php?page=$3 [L]
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
<ifModule mod_php5.c>
php_value default_charset utf-8
</ifModule>[/text]

Ill be on the forums all day reading up on it and checking out new stuff but if you want to msg me on msn it is Calm.to.catastrophe@gmail.com

What exactly do you need help with? The first mod rewrite looks like it would work... Do you need help putting it into your current .htaccess file?

Ok so
[text]RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*).htm$ $1/index.php?page=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)/(.*)/(.*).htm$ $1/2$/index.php?page=$3 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*).htm$ $1/$2.htm [L][/text]

Got me
http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Backgrounds/1.htm
http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Bac ... unds/1.htm
http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Backgrounds-1.htm

How do i get
http://www.myspace-help.com/Myspace-Bac ... unds-1.htm

I Also tried this formula but did not work
[text]RewriteRule ^(.*)-(.*)-(.*).htm$ $1/$2/$3.htm [L][/text]

Try this:
[syntax]RewriteRule ^(.*)([0-9]+).htm$ $1/$2.htm [L][/syntax]
That should give you
